As far as I know, Mongrel doesn't do that -- there's no parent process
managing worker children at all; every mongrel is, in effect, an
independent peer. I'm not sure of the technical reason for this --
perhaps spawning workers is too expensive (or workers are generally
too large) for this to be effective in practice?

I was also a bit confused by this at first, having come from the
Apache world -- but yeah, I've never seen any solution that didn't
involve treating every mongrel as a separate service.
